[Xbox Series X/S] Visual Downgrade - LOD Reduction

It was really a sight to behold, not even kidding. I could watch those “the sky is calling” trailers and genuinely believe I was playing the same game.

■■■■ now you make me wanna experience SU10 even more but that unfortunately won’t be possible now and that drives me kinda crazy :confused: I knew that the series S could do better than this.

Well, hopefully the LOD fix was just the first step back in the right direction. I still have hope that they will further optimize over time. Game is still young. And there’s always Series X 360 or whatever they call the next one.

The LOD and low quality texture issue is fixed in beta, and will be available officially this month (no date yet).

well, I think there’s something wrong with my xbox s/s, because I’ve been having problems with textures for two days and I’m using the beta, I even uninstalled and reinstalled it and nothing is normal. the game is incredibly ugly, the textures do not load, and even the destination airport does not load.

Things not loading sounds like a server or download issue.

Not the same as LOD or textures.

Worth getting some pictures and making a thread if it continues. But if it is server related it will likely fix itself. Some days the servers are just bad.

Yes, maybe that’s it… I made a topic earlier showing photos of a flight that had just taken, from Spain to Morocco, and my friend, what an ugly thing to look at… :joy:

if i remember correctly niagara falls are an issue itself not related to LOD. I also think kind of photogrammetry quality is not related to this thread specific issue

I am still not convinced by this thread that a LOD issue persists.

But I am convinced a LOT of folks on Xbox are unsure as to exactly what LOD is.

In short, LOD is the circle around you where you see the most detailed 3D objects. Trees, mountain geometry, photogrammetry buildings, traffic… etc.

Textures are different. And data streaming (which can cause issues like melted photogrammetry and square tiles of textures popping in) is a different beast too.

Ultimate beta? What on God’s green earth is that?

beta is a version of the game where players have the choice to join it or not they try the future updates before it became public , like for example the issues with lod is solved in the beta but not yet published to everybody you need to join the beta version of the game , but always remember that its just beta not final version so other issues can happen but they solve it kinda quick with the reviews in the forums

I’m on Beta and things look definitely better, but not 100% fixed.

Is this a LOD issue, or a server issue?




100% server related.

What specifically would you say is not fixed 100 percent?

In every single instance, when I have asked for clarification, folks point to an issue that is not LOD related.

It is almost always a server issue.

Best I can tell, the LOD is now fixed. And if it wasn’t, photos don’t lie and LOD issues are reproducible, so this thread would be flooded with proof.

*edit: autocorrect really did a number on the original draft of this post, and added the word, “Girls” in a way that TOTALLY changed my intended meaning.

So, it got flagged. And I was like, “What?”

Then I read it. :flushed:

Offending language has been removed. Holy cow, that was a doozy!

LOD is definitely fixed. And finally I can see something from the South-American mesh I bought. This picture is nothing compared to what i see on my TV. It’s pretty amazing, over the Andes in Chili.
